We want the Government to reverse the changes it made to VAT on advance payments for Motability vehicles, as proposed in the latest Budget. These changes could result in people taking cars that are not suitable due to price increases.

Members can read every reason.
Stop proposed changes to the Motability Scheme
The recent budget has announced taxes on advanced payments and a decrease in mileage allowances. We believe this is unfair to the most vulnerable in society and could affect their independence.
Remove all VAT on applicable Licensed Taxis
Remove VAT charges for all applicable licensed public-hire taxis, including London black cabs. Buses and trains are zero-rated for VAT under the VAT Act 1994. All licensed taxis, regardless of income, should receive the same treatment as public transport to support clean, accessible travel.
Introduce a Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) and MOT requirement for touring caravans
Touring caravans are currently exempt from MOT testing and pay no Vehicle Excise Duty, despite: Reports of being involved in thousands of road incidents each year Causing an increase in vehicle CO₂ emissions Making use of UK road infrastructure without contributing equivalent revenue.
Remove the Reverse Charge VAT for trade contractors and subcontractors
We ask the Government to remove the Reverse Charge VAT for trade contractors and subcontractors and to implement alternative, targeted measures which in our view could prevent VAT fraud without damaging legitimate businesses or causing widespread cash-flow pressure across the construction industry.
Reduce VAT on public electric vehicle charging to 5% in line with home charging
Reduce VAT on public vehicle charging to 5% inline with home charging so people without home/off street parking are not penalized. I think it would accelerate the potential of electric vehicle take up.
